The armour reminds me of the movie, The Chronicles of Narnia:
The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. Nice movie by the way.

No offense intended, Nechesh, but every centaur I've known has been a horse's ass.
Very cool stuff, Radu. Thanks.

tooo funny...Were all a little bit of centaurs, behind every face and deeds of a great man in the history there's a horse's ass and a woman... well, except perhaps Alexander the Great on its recent movie... the horse was great though... |

I just watched that film the other night. I want my three hours back.  (You know it's a bad movie when even Angelina Jolie's presence doesn't help. )

Oh, that show! I was quite 'disturbed' by the 'pretty boy' dance in India.
Alexander's Khopis and his lion helm were very nice though!  And I love the scene where Alexander charged the elephant; it was just so raw and powerful! |
